President Donald Trump will sign two executive actions to clamp down on illegal immigration Wednesday, White House press secretary Sean Spicer announced.

The first action will direct funds to begin the construction of a wall on the southern border - "Mexico will pay for it," Spicer said - and provide additional tools to the Department of Homeland Security to clamp down on illegal immigration, including the provision of more detention space. The action will also end the so-called "catch and release" policy, and will prioritize the deportation of undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes.

The second action boosts federal agency efforts to stop illegal immigration, including through restoration of the "Secure Communities Program." The State Department will take steps to ensure countries of origin accept the return of illegal immigrants who committed criminal acts, Spicer said, and "sanctuary cities" will be stripped of federal grants.
